Our Social Work Fellowship Program offers advanced training for clinical social workers. Applicants must have an MSW from an accredited school of social work and must obtain a Massachusetts social work license before beginning the fellowship.

Post-graduate fellowships are offered in various areas of the hospital.

Positions are part-time or full-time depending on the particular fellowship.

All fellowships carry a stipend and allow vacation time.

Most fellowships offer benefits at additional cost.

Strength in numbers

Boston Children’s has more than 100 licensed social workers who are actively involved in all areas of the hospital.

Everyone's needs are unique

“No two families ever have the same exact needs. But in each case, it is so meaningful to help families feel even a little bit relieved of their stress.”
-- Lois Green, MSW, LICSW, medical social worker

Boston Children’s is so much more than a hospital—it’s a community of researchers, clinicians, administrators, support staff, innovators, teachers, patients and families, all working together to make the impossible possible.
